Jan 30 U of C Design Workshop

Big Idea: There are many ways to approach good learning design. Design is distinct from Planning. Planning is solution-focussed: Consider a problem, devise a solution, implement. Design is user-focussed and iterative: Learn about your end user, consider multiple solutions to their problems, prototype promising solutions (think small & agile), evaluate, iterate & scale up as needed.

Goals:To use our time together for collaboratively developing ideas for solving problems of practice (in light of empathy & insights that have come prior) and creating prototypes for these solutions. To learn about the use of Design Thinking in Elementary School contexts in Rocky View Schools.
